chapter 278
She swiftly gave Calypso a kick in the back, making her lose her balance and hurtle toward the ground. However, Beatrice was still holding on to her, so half of her body was on the ground while the other half was in the air.Then, two things fell out of her pocket, attracting everyone's attention.Lorenzo had been watching Calypso. He still had some questions for her, and he frowned when he saw the things that had fallen out of her pockets. He walked over to her and picked them up, an ugly look creeping onto his face when he realized what they were.Beatrice felt it'd been a while since she'd seen Lorenzo like this. She wanted to see what he was holding but couldn't because she was still pinning Calypso down. She couldn't afford to let her guard down around such a cunning woman.Fortunately, Lorenzo showed her what the things were. "This is surveillance equipment. Everything that happened earlier has already been sent to someone."Beatric
Chapter 277
Lorenzo had once again guessed what she was thinking. She tried to come up with a reasonable excuse for herself but failed. Soon, she started to look fearful. It wasn't because she couldn't think of a reason, but because Lorenzo started to smile while looking at her for no reason whatsoever. To Calypso, this wasn't a good thing. As she tried to think of a way to get herself out of this situation, Lorenzo said, "Before you said anything, I truly had no intention of going after Richard because he's innocent in all of this. However, I changed my mind when I saw your concern and fear. Perhaps punishing or tormenting Richard would be a better way to torture you." As he spoke, he turned to face them. Calypso stood there. She could clearly sense Richard's despair at Lorenzo's words, and she turned pale. Richard's reaction told her that Lorenzo wasn't pulling her leg. He was truly wealthy and merely kept a low profile, but he would definitely walk the talk. Without any hesitation, she sto
Chapter 276
Clara had been prepared to give up her whole inheritance to help Lorenzo, but it now seemed like things between Lorenzo and Richard were completely different from what she'd originally thought.She stood there and looked at Richard curiously, thinking that Lorenzo and Richard must've reached an agreement. Perhaps Lorenzo was a shareholder of the Graves Group.As she tried to puzzle things out, Richard closed his eyes and sighed, looking upset. He couldn't bring himself to admit this, and he had to say it aloud in front of so many people. It was a huge insult to him, but he knew that this was exactly what Lorenzo wanted.Lorenzo knew that he hadn't transferred the shares willingly, so he wanted to use this as a way to make him concede and yield to him-it was written all over Lorenzo's face.Richard couldn't help but gnash his teeth at this thought. He hated that he was aware of all this but unable to change anything. He clenched his fists tightly a

Calypso relaxed at his words and started to look victorious. "That must mean that he isn't a wealthy person." Unfortunately for her, she was absolutely wrong. Richard smiled with satisfaction. "Lorenzo comes from one of the most powerful families in the world, and he has immeasurable wealth. In fact, he'll be inheriting all of his family's businesses in the future," Clara said sincerely as she looked at Calypso, hoping to see her apologize. Though she didn't like Calypso, she knew Cassian Veyron wanted to help her. And so, she was doing what she could to help. However, she was disappointed once again. Calypso stood there with her arms crossed, looking mocking. She said sharply, "I know you're desperate to be with Lorenzo, and you've already thrown your family aside for him. In fact, when your dirty laundry was aired for the world to see, you decided to continue helping Lorenzo for the sake of your relationship rather than thinking of ways to protect our family's reputation. That's
Chapter 275
Lorenzo didn't allow them to ask more questions after saying that. He looked at Calypso's waist and said calmly, "You have a blade tucked into your waistband now, don't you? You must've put in a lot of effort to pick it up amidst the chaos earlier." Calypso paled, not expecting Lorenzo to know about this. Earlier, when she was doing this, she'd kept an eye on Lorenzo to ensure he wasn't paying attention to her. She stiffened, at a loss for what to do. Cassian Veyron suddenly looked up at Lorenzo with a resolute gaze. "Lorenzo, I'm sure there's a misunderstanding somewhere. Calypso might've made many wrong choices, but I'm positive she wouldn't stab someone." Lorenzo opened his mouth, then shut it again and massaged his temples. "I don't think there's anything further to discuss. If you have something to say about this, I don't mind dealing with the both of you together." Everyone's expression changed at his words. Calypso looked expectant, and Clara looked worried, but Cassian Vey
Chapter 274
Cassian thought that Lorenzo would at least consider it. To his disappointment, Lorenzo shook his head firmly. "I might have a slightly better impression of you now, but it's not enough to stop me from going after someone who has repeatedly tried to harm me." His face and tone were devoid of emotion, making it clear to everyone that Cassian's wish would never come true. Cassian paled. He put his hands on his knees, seemingly wanting to get to his feet, but he failed. Calypso stood nearby, watching them. She didn't expect Cassian to go this far for her, especially when he usually acted like he couldn't care less about her. Her heart skipped a beat, and she placed a hand on her chest as she walked toward him. The moment she started moving, Lorenzo heard her footsteps. He frowned deeply and turned to look at her with dissatisfaction, but he didn't stop her. She stopped before Cassian and looked down at
